I think a calpol ice stick for teething babies. can't bear another session forcing it with the syringe.

Also, a buggy that folds up like a brompton bike.

A flat freezer you can keep under the bed, for people with small flats who want more food storage.

Any more?

A fridge that tells you what needs eating up. (I know, sounds lazy but there's always some vegetable rotting that i've forgotten about)

Something that stops children scuffing the front of their school shoes all the way through the leather on the first day of wearing them.

an umbrella that fits onto a buggy/pushchair for the poor parents pushing it along. really hard to push a buggy whilst holding a brolly!

Milkybar not sure if this link will work - but there is such a thing and I had one!

cling film dispenser that doesn't rip apart on openeing and can actually tear clingfilm (and not just your skin!)

milky bar i've been wondering if there's a way to make those umbrella hats look anything but totally uncool. think probably not, but tempted on starting a revival anyway.

The Holy Grail - a nice fashionable completely waterproof jacket/coat with style.

A cordless/battery operated hair straightener. That works! Ditto hair dryer.

A time extender that can freeze the kids in place so you can calm down, have a bath, not be cross with them, find something that will distract them from blowing their top and then re-start time again . Same for housework if people drop in unexpectedly.

moisturiser that instantly makes you look 10 years younger. Calorie free wine/chocolate.
